CLASSROOM PROGRAMS

Our classroom adventure packages were designed to allow all students (groups of 30 or less) the opportunity to get up close and personal with our animals. During these programs students are able to observe and touch and/or hold many of the animals. 

Jungle James has had great success helping students overcome personal barriers by interacting one on one with the animals, and personally addressing the children’s questions.

REPTILE ASSEMBLIES

For larger audiences (generally over 40 students), Jungle James has developed upbeat and exciting assembly programs showcasing reptiles from around the world.  The level of hands on interaction with the animals is more limited than our classroom presentations due to the size and scale of our audience.  However Jungle James will call for volunteers to personally interact with the animals, plot the animal’s origin on a world map and provide feedback to the students about their discoveries. 

As always, we share fun and interesting educational facts and anecdotal stories to adapt content to various grade levels and lesson plans throughout the presentation.   

"Jungle James came to our school. His presentation was informative engaging & fun. All the kids LOVED it! Their animals are amazing. The crested geckos are the coolest. The tortoise, Tank, is a showstopper and the chameleon, is just stunning. I can't wait to have them come to my son's birthday!"

"We recently worked with Jungle James for one of our annual school events and the students and guests LOVED learning from Jungle James and Erica the Explorer! They were both a pleasure to work with, as was Monique, COO Extraordinaire! I highly recommend welcoming Jungle James to your school function or birthday. Such a HIT!!!"

Jungle James came to our son's school for his 4th birthday, the kids and teachers LOVED him! He brought tons of live animals and Tank the tortoise! Most of all, he made our son feel special by focusing the attention on him and allowing him to pet all the animals first!!!
